Grolichova qualified for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where she competed as a lone female athlete in women's modern pentathlon.

In 2006 Grolichova won the World Cup in Moscow. In 2009, Grolichova made her breakthrough season in the international scene, when she won two gold medals for the relay event, along with her teammates Natálie Dianová and Sylvie Cerna, at the European Championships in Leipzig, Germany, and consequently, at the World Championships in London, England.
